THE ROLES OF NURSE EDUCATORS AND THE USE OF WEB-BASED TOOLS SUITABLE FOR LEARNER-CENTERED LEARNING STRATEGIES IN DISTANCE EDUCATION IN THE PANDEMIC PROCESS

Öz

One of the areas most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic has been nursing education. This process not only has created many difficulties, but also has provided the educators with the opportunity to revise existing traditional education. Especially current problems such as providing motivation for learners and involving learners in the learning process in traditional face-to-face education have been discussed in the distance education process much more. In this context, for a learner-centered nursing education, there has been a process in which some educator roles have come to the fore. In addition, it has become important to the use of web-based tools compatible for learner-centered teaching strategies. In this article, it is aimed to contribute to the maintenance of quality in distance education, which will partially continue in education programs after the pandemic, by providing a framework on the roles of educators, learner-centered learning strategies and the use of suitable tools for these in distance education in nursing education.

PANDEMİ SÜRECİNDE UZAKTAN EĞİTİMDE HEMŞİRE EĞİTİCİLERİN ROLLERİ VE ÖĞRENEN MERKEZLİ ÖĞRETİM STRATEJİLERİNE UYGUN WEB TABANLI ARAÇLARIN KULLANIMI

Öz

COVID-19 pandemisinin en fazla etkilediği alanlardan birisi hemşirelik eğitimi olmuştur. Bu süreç, getirdiği pek çok güçlüğün yanı sıra eğiticilere mevcut geleneksel eğitimi tekrar gözden geçirme fırsatı sunmuştur. Özellikle geleneksel yüz yüze eğitimdeki öğrenenlerin motivasyonunu sağlamak ve öğrenenleri öğrenme sürecine dahil etmek gibi mevcut sorunlar uzaktan eğitim sürecinde çok daha fazla tartışılır hale gelmiştir. Bu bağlamda öğrenen merkezli bir hemşirelik eğitimi için bazı eğitici rollerinin daha fazla ön plana çıktığı bir süreç yaşanmıştır. Ayrıca öğrenen merkezli öğretim stratejilerine uygun web tabanlı araçların kullanılması önem kazanmıştır. Bu makalede, hemşirelik eğitiminde uzaktan eğitimde eğitici rolleri, öğrenen merkezli öğretim stratejileri ve bunlara uygun araçların kullanımı konusunda bir çerçeve sunarak pandemi sonrası da eğitim programlarında kısmen devam edecek olan uzaktan eğitimde kalitenin sürdürülmesine katkı sağlamak amaçlanmıştır.
